It was feared a holiday let would 'create tensions with long standing residents'
A Glasgow home-owner planning to let their flat as short-stay accommodation has lost an appeal against a council decision which ruled the use was “unlawful”.
A planning official had reported “not enough information” had been provided by the applicant, but he had estimated “the rental of the property as short-term let would ideally be four months a year but more realistically 3 months a year ”. They ruled the plan would “most likely involve a change of use from residential flat to short-stay accommodation” and require a planning application.
“I do not agree that renting to another family, which most probably would leave in the morning and come back in the evening, will create constant circulation around the block,” the appeal added.However, the reporter, Andrew Fleming, decided there would be a material change of use which “would not be lawful without the express grant of planning permission”.
